Help with corrupted FIT file

1205421 over 2 years ago

I recorded a day's skiing and it shows on my Garmin forerunner 35 as 7 hours and 82 km. The activity did not sync automatically and when I tried to upload the FIT file it would not upload. I tried online fixes and managed to upload the first 60 km of the activity, can anyone help recover the rest of the data? Here are the 2 FIT files, the original and the repaired CCN91916.zip

Some suggestions to help minimize the occurrence of corrupt fit files on a Forerunner 35

Sync your watch, backup the \GARMIN\ACTIVITY folder, then do a full master reset of your Forerunner 35 using these directions - Restoring All Default Settings
Perform a weekly cleanup of the \GARMIN\ACTIVITY folder using these directions - Removing Recorded Activities to Free Up Space. The F35 seems to have problems with longer activities, so this step is important before a longer event
Regularly check for firmware updates using Garmin Express
Please report back here when you encounter corrupted files again
